machine.fun launches Ignition, letting founders lock tokens in escrow with preset sale prices

Machine.fun's Ignition lets founders lock a share of their tokens in escrow at launch, with preset price points at which those tokens are sold as limit orders. Proceeds stay in escrow and are withdrawn under a daily limit to pre-designated wallets; the schedule is irreversible and optional. On launch, founders can buy up to 75 SOL on the curve, holding roughly 75% of supply, and can place, for example, 50% into Ignition. The author contrasts this with VC rounds, community rounds, fee income and undisclosed self-selling, arguing token funding suits attention, not manufacturing.
